A 1kg Fire Extinguisher with ratings A, B, and E is suitable for the following types of fires:
-
Class A (Solid Fires): These are fires involving solid materials like wood, paper, textiles, rubber, and plastics. It's effective for common combustibles that create burning embers.
-
Class B (Liquid Fires): These are fires involving flammable liquids such as oils, paints, solvents, and petrol. The extinguisher can help suppress these hazardous liquid fires.
-
Class E (Electrical Fires): This classification means the extinguisher is safe for use on live electrical equipment, like computers, electrical panels, and wiring, without posing a risk of electrocution.
This type of fire extinguisher is quite versatile, offering protection for both everyday fires (like paper or wood) and more specialized fires (such as those involving liquids or electrical components). Just make sure to check if it's the right size for the area you need to protect!
